“As a community we believe that Fife Council’s plan for Bankie Park will destroy the structure, recreational use, wildlife habitats and wildflower meadows.

“We are not fighting against having a care home in our town but do not want to see that at the expense of our green space.

“We do not see how their plans will improve this situation. We encourage locals who feel passionate about protecting our Bankie Park to write to Fife Council consultation to voice their concerns, join the online petition or complete one of our objection cards/petitions locally.”
